was on the stage. Besides, some fel- low Mr. Adams knows who had a con- tact with a man at the Paramount stu- dios on Long Island told them that the Inovies preferred curly-haired children. The permanent wave wasn't very successful- Jackie's hair isn't the kind that takes it well-but at least it keeps his hair back and out of his eyes. Some of the kids at school noticed it and gave him the razz, but they couldn't call him a sissy. They know better. He can keep up his end in a fight if he wants to. He doesn't have much time to play, what with school and his home- work and rehearsals and g<Ding around to see people. Jackie's father really tries awfully hard to help him get ahead. He runs all over town trying to make contacts for him, but most of the people the Adamses know aren't very important or don't know very Î1nportant people. AI] the leading studios and agents have ] ackie' s name and address written down and they promised they'd call him when they had anything, but you know how that is. His father did man- age to get him two weeks at the J k I R.K.O. Coliseum a year ago in a skit a e e e that was called "Hollywood Babies," but Jackie had to have a dress suit with 546 FIFTH AVENUE · NEW YORK swallowtails and a silk hat made to order for it, which took pretty near all - he got out of it. His father gets him at least one engagement a month to sing at charìty affairs or lodge enter- tainments. Once] ackie made forty dollars in one night when he sang for the Jewish Ladies' Aid. That was money! THE NEW YORKER T ./\ST winter Jackie was on the radio. L You must have heard him on Sun- day mornings on that children's hour. He was the one who sang "Just an Echo-Yoo-Hoo-in the Valley- Y oo-Hoo." He sings the sentimental songs better than the hot ones, and his voice comes over very well. He was on two programs for a time this spring, regularly every week. They don't pay for the children's broadcasts that ] ackie's on, but at least a child gets a reputation and a chance to be heard on them. Jackie is surprised that he hasn't been signed by any commercial yet. He has the voice and he's had the experience, all right. He abnost was signed last winter. Some woman who arranges programs for commercial sponsors had him rehearsing in a skit with three other kids. But two of the others left the act when they were signed hy commercials, and that busted it all up. Jackie has to wait now un- 41 ' t :Î .'

This year however things are different and WE URGE YOU TO BUY NOW because prices will undoubtedly be higher in the Fall . In addition, the furs for this collection were bought long before prices reached even their present levels, so that you can buy Jaeckel quality and Jaeckel fashion at the same price as ordinary furs bought less well and less wisely.
